Possible Solution... 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be BH on  Wed May 21 19:05 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Well, I traced all the positive and negative wires and found no chafing, but definitely found some oxidized ground points. Thoroughly cleaned and wire brushed them, then snugged 'em down. Also thoroughly cleaned and retightened the positive leads that tie into the positive terminal clamp. Harness still looks pretty and new around the crank shaft pulley. Seems to have done the trick.

At least until the thing bursts into flames sometime tomorrow in the heat of some dire emergency when I need it most.
